NOVEL NEXT Chapter 355: Tourist Helmets
With this decision of the transaction, in Little Ai's eyes, the flames atop the Captain's head once again danced fervently.
It meant that this powerful Demon God was extremely satisfied with the results of the transaction; it seemed to have learned some knowledge during the process, emitting a strange laugh.
A small bottle of Life Spring, along with this contract, were placed on the two sides of the Judgment Balance.
A fair trade!
After all, the value measurement of the "Judgment Balance" is different from the numerical measurement on the technological side. Little Ai did not understand the specifics within.
But perhaps if the Captain thinks it's fair, then it is fair? God knows what the so-called "occult judgment" is all about.
Wang Hao said, "Please drink it here. Since you have already traded all that remains of yourself, you will not be able to come here for more transactions until you have achieved great accomplishments."
"I... understand."
After Fu Liaoyi wrote down his name, he was drenched in sweat, as if drained of strength.
He really traded everything of himself.
He took the bottle and downed the pale blue liquid inside it in one gulp.
Immediately, drowsiness surged, and he slumped over the table, drifting off into a deep sleep.
"Little Ai, see our guest out."
Wang Hao felt a hint of joy in his heart.
As for why he felt joy, it may be because this transaction not only changed Fu Liaoyi's life but also slightly changed the world. The future became a bit blurry, beginning to turn uncertain.
This uncertainty, on the contrary, made the world more interesting.
...
Little Ai sighed inwardly, picked up Fu Liaoyi, and directly threw him out of the shop.
This shop does not exist in the material world, and throwing him out meant returning him to reality.
...
...
Time passed without knowing how long it had been.
Fu Liaoyi woke up from his deep sleep, an indescribable sense of Hunger filling his mind.
As if he hadn't eaten for three days and three nights, he grabbed a box of cookies from the bedside table and devoured it entirely, and only then was the voracious Hunger suppressed.
Fu Liaoyi blinked his eyes.
It was still that shabby rental room, the ceiling light bright, the air filled with a decaying scent.
"I completed the transaction, drank that bottle of water."
He somewhat dazedly shook his head and looked out the window at the bustling street.
The world hadn't changed much from the past, but subtle transformations had occurred.
"My vision has improved!"
His thoughts flowed unusually smoothly, as if the governor and conception vessels had been opened, granting him a profound connection with all things in the universe.
His memory significantly improved; he could even recall what he ate a week ago!
He clenched his fists, feeling a slight change in his physical fitness.
This was higher Intelligence!
Confusion was disappearing.
In its place, a sense of clarity emerged!
"My current self should learn more, pursue academic degrees."
"Merely complaining is pointless."
"I need to do something!"
He vaguely recalled a saying, the two professions most in need of a conscience in the world are media and law.
"I could become a lawyer or a judge, engage in some clean professions! I can definitely do it!"
Fu Liaoyi's eyes brightened increasingly. Now it was midsummer, and the college entrance examination would officially start in a year.
He needed to leverage his smart brain to get into a law school within a year!
Then, to become a real lawyer, to change the world!
Fu Liaoyi walked towards the door.
A new life had begun!
...
...
"Ah? You are quite wicked, aren't you? Just because he smooths out his edges do you want him to die? Isn't the consequence of this trade too severe?"
After finishing the game, Wang Hao shared today's story with Little Yue.
She was wearing a knee-length pleated skirt today, a light blue loose blouse, looking sweet and cute, especially with her pink slippers swaying, giving off a very cheeky look.
"Couldn't the consequence of the transaction be a bit lighter?"
Wang Hao rolled his eyes, "It's already good enough, he has gained Wisdom! If I hadn't made some money from Lu Wenhao with the temporal tide power, I would have been at a loss. How can you change the world without a bit of ambition?"
Little Yue giggled, "So, you could make him smart just by treating him to a meal? There's no need for any Life Spring."
"That's not feasible, I only want to lay back, I'd rather lose some money than cook!" Old Wang leisurely sprawled on the sofa and played with his phone.
Time really flew by, playing games, petting the cat, enjoying delicious food, and chatting with the girl – a day quietly passed like that.
But Old Wang felt that his days were particularly fulfilling.
Little Yue leaned on the sofa, stroking Old Wang's hair like petting a cat, and curiously asked, "Today's guests were really strange. Lu Wenhao is a lawyer, and Fu Liaoyi actually wants to be a lawyer too. Will they have some special intersection?"
"Maybe they will, because the time passage ratio in the game's Earth World is 1:1 with ours, and I can't predict in advance... Well, I actually don't really want to know. The unknown is what's fun."
Old Wang twisted a soda cap off, took a gulp of soda, and gave a heartfelt exclamation—refreshing!
He analyzed carefully, "Fu Liaoyi getting into university should be no problem, after all, he used 100,000 yuan of Life Spring, his IQ might be 140-150, which is much smarter than an average person."
